  2. Turn off engine. Loosen and slide off small outer clamp from steering gear bellow boot. This is to prevent boot from twisting during adjustment .
  3. Adjust left and right tie rods until each wheel has 1/2 of the desired total toe specification. Tighten jam nut. Attach boot clamp after toe-in adjustment. Verify tie rod boot is not twisted.
